Yes, one would want Scratchbox or similar in addition to what OBS
provides. However, there is nothing that prevents Scratchbox from being
used together with RPM and an RPM based distro is there?
You need some support for RPM tools in SB and OBS would need to prefix
commands with sbox or sb2 depending on which SB version is used.
Don't go around trying to changing everything if what you're missing is
just Scratchbox.
I wouldn't say "just", distro cross-building is surprisingly hairy
problem, it can sprout warts years after you thought it was nailed
down. Anyway, SB is package build system agnostic.
I would recommend using SB v2. With that you just need to select
suitable packages from the distro to accelerate and adding path
mapping rules for binaries in them, whereas with SB v1 you need
to support SB specific host tools distro in addition to package
management devkit.
